1
Chop Tomatoes
Dice the tomatoes into small cubes and place them in a mixing bowl.
2
Mince Garlic
Peel and finely mince the garlic cloves, then add them to the bowl with the tomatoes.
3
Add Basil and Seasoning
Chop the fresh basil leaves and add them to the bowl. Season the mixture with salt and black pepper, then stir well to combine.

4
Slice the Baguette
Cut the baguette into 1/2-inch thick slices on a diagonal to maximize surface area.
5
Brush with Olive Oil
Brush both sides of each slice with olive oil to ensure even grilling.

6
Preheat Grill
Preheat your grill or grill pan over medium-high heat.
7
Grill the Bread
Place the oiled bread slices on the grill and cook for about 2-3 minutes on each side, or until they are golden brown and have nice grill marks.

8
Top the Bread
Once the bread is grilled, remove it from the grill and place it on a serving platter. Spoon the tomato mixture generously over each slice.
9
Serve
Serve the bruschetta immediately while the bread is still warm, and enjoy!
